- 1 cup organic cream on top whole milk [pasteurized OK, non-homogenized / sub unsweetened non-dairy milk of choice]
- 1/2-1 tsp ghee
- 1-2 dates chopped
- 1/4 tsp rose petals dried & crushed
- 1/4 tsp fennel seeds
- 1/4 tsp cardamom ground
- 1/4 tsp cinnamon ground
- 1/8 tsp vanilla powder or 1/4 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 saffron thread [optional]
- 1/8 tsp shatavari powder [optional, to balance hormones / sub ashwagandha powder]
optional
- 10 almonds soaked & peeled [for extra ojas building, blended at the end]
Add all ingredients except vanilla to a small pot with a bit of water to cover the bottom to avoid burning.
Bring to a slow gentle boil over medium heat and turn down immediately to simmer for a few minutes, stirring occasionally.
*Optional but extra-delicious step: Let cool slightly before adding to blender or Nutribullet and blitz for 10 seconds until frothy.
Enjoy warm after dinner/before bed.
